Ganeshan, an Infosys employee, had been living in Brussels for the past four years with his wife. His wife recently returned to India and gave birth to their first child.

The Belgian government has confirmed after DNA tests that Ganeshan was one of the victims of the attacks.

Ganeshan had gone missing after the bomb blasts in Brussels last Tuesday and was believed to be among the injured even as the Indian embassy in Belgium was actively searching for him.

He had called his mother on Skype on the unfortunate day, hours ahead of the Brussels terror attacks. He had told her that he was about to leave for work. When his brother, who lives in Germany, called their mother to inform her about the terror strikes, she realized they happened to be on the route her son takes every day to get to work.
